We had a good experience at Sunshine Casita. It is a quiet area and close to Palo Dura Canyon. We were there to see the canyon but found the town of Canyon quaint. The Casita was clean, nicely decorated and had all amenities listed. We loved sitting on the back porch swing watching the sunrise and late afternoon relaxing after a long day of hiking.

The Sunshine Casita was a bright, cozy, and peaceful location for a quick visit to West Texas. Cleanliness was top notch and accommodations were as advertised. There was a communication glitch with the arrival instructions not arriving by check in time, but the host was quick to respond when asked.

50 th anniversary trip

Sunshine Casita is a clean, stocked, comfortable home to stay and enjoy the Palo Duro Canyon area. We explored the Canyon and area during the day and it was great to sit on the front or back porches to enjoy the evenings or coffee in the mornings. We enjoyed watching the cows and horses in surrounding pastures. We felt like we were part of Texas!!

Good times

Clean and comfortable. Just what we were looking for, to get away from Dallas. Palo Duro was shut down due to rain. So we improvised in Canyon. Saw a show at the university. Hiked at Cap Rock instead. Watched the cows and a jackrabbit from the back porch. We would stay here again.

A Hidden Gem

Sunshine Casita is a hidden gem in Canyon. It was such a wonderful place to stop on our trip. The house was clean and had all the things that one would need. The back porch has a swing that allows you to sit at night and look at the stars. We spent a few hours out there listening to music, watched a storm move through and then enjoyed the stars. We will definitely be back!
